Finally! I can cross one square off last year's Cliché Bingo card. I picked 'vulnerability'... which gave me the excuse inspiration to draw this scene.

After the battle (Roy&Riza). Just speculation for the end of the manga.

(and I inked the one I posted the sketch of the other day. It's not yet colored though. And it needs at least a hint of background.)fic recs:Firefight by genarti (FMA)gen; PG-13; Havoc, Mustang, Hawkeye; 1597 wordsSummary: Well, what the hell, thinks Havoc. Nobody ever claimed working for the Flame Alchemist was boring.

Seriously cool snapshot of Mustang's team, doing what they do best. The voices are spot on!

The colonel's standing two yards closer -- well, he would, and it's not as if he's got anything to worry about -- and his coattails keep billowing. It's a very dramatic silhouette, and Jean is privately sure that's the entire reason the bastard colonel wears his coat so often. Hell, he probably maneuvers the air or something to make it billow more.

There was another literal video I wanted to link, alas, Youtube was faster; it's already gone. Those Youtube folks need to read up on parody and fair use. This is ridiculous.

more crack: everybody loves roy! by morningeee (FMA)Funny vid, though the cuts are a bit fast for my taste. I actually noticed that with most of the FMA vids I found interesting. Just a coincidence, or are vids in anime fandom cut faster than in Western media fandom? Like, a general stylistic trend?

Here's another one I really like, but which I'd enjoy even more if it would allow me a breather here and there to process the information.All is fading by SerenKyun (FMA)Song: Fading by Decyfer Down.Really, darn fast... but it's so well-edited that it doesn't feel hectic. I love the music choice, too. Ensemble vid.
